Jasmine knows she should be looking for work. She knows she should be doing something to help herself get by, she really needs a new pair of clothes besides the school girl uniform she's had to wash in the water that's collected in the cave. Its moving so it can't be bad water, maybe an underground river? But most importantly she could do with some food.
And, although some of the most tasty looking bread in the entire world is just within her grasp, she finds herself lacking anything to trade for it. In her pockets she has the following:
A piece of lint.
Half of a piece of gum.
And a mint wraper.
She hasn't eaten since yesterday morning when she had been looked upon with guilt by a couple of older teenagers. They had given her their donuts for the sparse change she had, about twenty cents give or take a couple pennies.
And now.
Now she wished she hadn't spent most of her money in the first couple days. Does she ever miss being her mommy's little girl, at least then she knew she could always get food. So when someone happens upon her she doesn't notice them at all, her mind else where... Like wondering if she swipe the loaf and get out of All Mart with out being noticed....

"Oh, hello!" said a voice coming out of the store, belonging to none other than the still-disguised 'Kanra'. "Fancy meeting you here, Jazz-chan!"

"Mmmm?" Jazz turns her gaze on him a moment before glancing back to the bread on display. "Hello there, Fluffy."

Her gaze went to the bread in the window. "Hungry?" she asked. "I can share some of what I bought with you, if you like. You can come by... 'nii-kun's' office with me and we'll have lunch there."

"Oh?" Jasmine looks over to Kanra. "Really?" Her eyes light up and she giggles.
"I'd love to have lunch with you...!" Her fists are held infront of her chest and she smiles hugely. "And not just because I'm famished~!" She really does like the other's company after all.

"Come on, then! We'll head back together, unless you'd rather picnic in the park or some such?"

"It doesn't matter," Jazz smiles as her tumy rumbles loudly causing her to blush. "As long as we're together~."

"THen let's head to that park over there," she said warmly, "and I'll share a bite to eat with you. It's closer than the office, and it's very nice on days like today."

"Shopping," she answered, holding up her bag and smiling. "SInce I'm practically living out of my office, I needed something to stock the fridge in there with."

She shrugged. "It's fine. I'm used to it, after all. THe only downside is that I never get homecooke meals anymore..."
She sighed.
"What I wouldn't give for sushi, cooked the old-fashioned way all by hand... with unagi... and shrimp..."
She sighed again. "Ah, well. The convenience of the modern era must have a trade-off, I suppose."

"Hmm... Maybe I can learn to cook... and maybe someday I can afford a play with a kitchen~?" She bounces along with her, Jazz is on her toes and elegant at it. "We should sit under the tree, yes?" Her mind already taking her places again, this time not to a land of only hunger.

"Sure," she agreed, smiling. Looking around, she sighed. THe park was nearly deserted, perfect for a uiet lunch with this amusing example of the human race she loved so much.

Jazz nods and races ahead, plopping down at the tree and sitting down with her knees below her, "Come on, Fluffy~!"
